Monday was crazy. Went out to celebrate a birthday at the club and then my friend and I ended up hiking up a nature reserve until 7am with a friend.

Tried my hand at barbell squatting yesterday and it didn't go as well as I thought it would. The weight was light on my legs but it felt like the bar was going to fall off. Very weird sensation after squatting comfortably for over 15 years. Got up to 365 pretty easily but only got the walk-out with 405, so I switched to the SSB and worked up to 420. Hit 330x3x8 and RDLs for 225x2x12 afterwards. My plan is to temporarily keep SSB squatting for max sets while I transition over to the barbell with everything else.

Went on a jog at night to the high school track and practiced Muay Thai, mixing shadowboxing with kicks. Following a boxing coach on Instagram that's giving me a lot of good boxing drills, such as hooking during a hard directional pivot.
